Use hydraulic equipment, welding and torch-cutting tools, electrical tools, and common hand tools to complete assigned work.
Perform track maintenance, grading, specialty lifting, railroad car recovery, load transfers, and related construction activities.
Monitor equipment and vehicles for operational readiness and minimize downtime.
Perform and document basic equipment maintenance and refer more complex repairs to the appropriate supervisor.
Assist with dismantling, loading, and securing equipment after job completion.
Restock vehicles and equipment, organize supplies, and sort scrap materials at the home base.
Maintain clean vehicles, equipment, and work areas while following safety procedures and supporting other departments as needed.

Willingness to work a 24/7 on-call schedule, including nights, weekends, and holidays, when emergency response is required.
Ability to complete required qualification tests, safety training, and other job-related programs.
Commitment to workplace safety, teamwork, and efficient job completion.
Preferred Experience
At least 3 years of heavy equipment operation experience, or an equivalent combination of training and experience.
Experience operating backhoes, bulldozers, excavators, front-end loaders, grapple trucks, rail-bound equipment, tractors, and skid-steer loaders.
Railroad derailment recovery, rerailing, track maintenance, or railroad construction experience is a plus.
Schedule and Compensation
40 hours guaranteed per week.
Typical workweeks average 60 or more hours, with occasional weeks reaching approximately 70 hours.
Overtime is paid at 1.5 times the regular rate for qualifying hours outside the standard Monday-Friday, 7:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. schedule, subject to applicable overtime rules.
